Who is she?

I am Sirja, an insatiably curious, enthusiastic and ambitious cellist and musician from Helsinki, Finland. I am passionate about working with people and engaging in interdisciplinary projects that push creative boundaries. I find the greatest joy in roles that challenge me to discover new facets of myself and deepen my artistic expression. Improvisation is at the heart of both of my playing and my approach to life. 

Beyond the stage, I thrive on contrasts. I find focus in dark roast coffee, calm in ambient music, and discipline in the gym. At the same time, I enjoy spicy food, dry humor, and the company of those who are just the right amount of unruly. 

To balance intensity with relaxation, I unwind in the sauna and take the occasional icy plunge into a frozen lake—always embracing the extremes. I have a keen eye for aesthetics—a passion for vintage finds—and a slight rebellious streak that keeps life interesting.
